You’ll Need:

  • 6 green apples (like Granny Smith), peeled and sliced
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional).
  • 2 tablespoons plain flour
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Step-by-Step Instructions for an Apple Pie Recipe:

  • Mix Apples: In a big bowl, stir apple slices with white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and flour.
  • Prepare Crust Bottom: Put one crust in your pie dish and press it in gently.
  • Add filling: Pour in the apple mix and spread evenly. Place the butter pieces on top.
  • Add Top Crust: Lay the second crust on top. Seal the edges and cut small slits on top to steam.
  • Brush the Top (optional): Beat one egg with a little water and brush it over the crust for a golden color.
  • Bake the Pie: Put in oven at 375°F (190°C) for 50 minutes, until the crust is golden and the apples are bubbling.
  • Let It Cool: Wait for the pie to cool before cutting so the filling sets.

  • Add whipped cream to the top.
  • Drizzle caramel sauce over your slice
